However, after a bit of thought, I decided to place a defensive spell on Asagi Aiba beforehand, just in case. —— The next day, while Asagi Aiba was working, she suddenly heard the alarm signaling an intrusion at the Keystone Gate. Startled, she quickly sent me a message. While I initially suspected the Black Death Emperor Front, when I arrived on the scene, I found the intruder wasn't Christoph Gardos. I saw a man clad in military-style metal armor fiercely striking the Keystone Gate with a heavy crescent axe, accompanied by a blue-haired loli girl. Upon seeing the blue-haired, blue-eyed girl, I understood—this was Astarte, Natsuki's future maid. In the original story, Rudolf Eustach and the Homunculus girl Astarte invaded the Keystone Gate to find the holy relic—the [Saint's Right Arm]—intending to use it to destroy Itogami Island. The next moment, I teleported directly in front of the two and, before Rudolf Eustach could react, knocked him unconscious with a single punch. However, I paid no further attention to him, instead looking at Astarte with keen interest. Astarte—as a Homunculus—was a pure doll designed to host a Familiar. The Familiar residing within her was named [Rhododactylos]. However, lacking the near-infinite negative energy of a vampire, her life was gradually being consumed by the Familiar—leading to her eventual death. After the [Saint's Right Arm] incident, she came under Natsuki's protection, received a three-year protective observation sentence, and was assigned as a clerk at Saikai Academy. Eventually, due to Natsuki-chan's peculiar interest, she was instructed by Natsuki to wear a maid outfit for work, becoming Natsuki's exclusive maid. 'Later, I can have Nagisa drink her blood, bringing the Familiar within her under Nagisa's control. This should solve Astarte's life-threatening issue.' 'But as a precaution, it's best to put Astarte to sleep for now.' —— The next moment, I smiled and snapped my fingers lightly, and Astarte immediately fainted. "Kyoya, is this girl also a terrorist?" At this point, Asagi Aiba emerged from the Keystone Gate, looking puzzled at Astarte in my arms. "Mm, this girl is a Homunculus, not part of the Black Death Emperor Front. Their goal was to find some holy relic to destroy Itogami Island." "I'm quite interested in this Homunculus. As for the man, let's leave him for the Defense Force to handle!" Saying this, I carried Astarte in one arm and held Asagi's hand with the other as we returned to the castle. —— Upon returning to the castle, I found several people excitedly discussing something. Seeing me, Nagisa immediately hugged me, exclaiming excitedly, "Kyoya, we captured the entire Black Death Emperor Front today! Aren't we amazing?" 'The Black Death Emperor Front was caught by Nagisa and Yukina?!' After Yukina Himeragi's explanation, I finally understood the reason. It turned out that Christoph Gardos of the Black Death Emperor Front had targeted Asagi Aiba and had broken into the school. But instead of finding her, they ran into Natsuki and the others—and were promptly defeated. Gardos and the Black Death Emperor Front he led were completely wiped out. "Did you kidnap another Loli girl from somewhere?" Natsuki Minamiya, who was sipping black tea, asked playfully after seeing Astarte. Hearing Natsuki's words, everyone finally noticed Astarte, whom I had placed on the sofa. "She's just a Homunculus. I brought her back because I found her interesting." I explained casually. "Homunculus?! Interesting!" Hearing this, Natsuki's eyes suddenly lit up, her gaze fixed on Astarte. 'It seems I'm still short one maid—isn't this perfect!' Seeing the look in Natsuki's eyes, how could I not know what she was thinking? However, I had no intention of easily handing her over to Natsuki-chan. I sat down right next to Natsuki, looking at her meaningfully. "Is Natsuki-chan interested in Astarte too? How about I give her to you as a maid?" Natsuki's eyes flickered slightly. She turned her head, looked at me, and said with her usual tsundere attitude, "Tch~ Who would be interested in a maid! But if you insist on giving her to me, I suppose I won't refuse." Seeing Natsuki-chan being so tsundere, I couldn't resist anymore. I simply hugged her tightly, gave her a fierce kiss, and then quickly took Astarte back to my room. In the living room, the other girls stared at Natsuki with strange expressions. Natsuki touched her own lips, her face flushing red, her eyes filled with shyness. 'That lecherous brat!!!' —— "Astarte, pour me some tea!" "Understood, Onii-sama." Immediately, Astarte, dressed in a maid outfit, brought me a cup of black tea. Looking at Astarte before me, blinking her lively large eyes, I felt quite happy. Since Nagisa didn't want to suck blood, I used my abilities to completely fix Astarte's defect. Now, Astarte was no longer just a Homunculus who only obeyed orders, but a normal girl. These past few days, I had been quite busy. I had gone to great lengths to improve Everyone's strength. First, I had everyone drink my blood, and I also gave them some rewards from the System. Recently, the rewards obtained from Nagisa and Kanon Kanase hadn't been very good and were of little use to me. The obtained [Ice-Ice Fruit]—was given to Asagi Aiba, since she currently had no way to protect herself. Seeing that Asagi Aiba received a gift, the other girls all looked resentful, forcing me to give gifts to everyone else as well. —— After spending these few days together, Sayaka Kirasaka, who had androphobia, would blush unconsciously whenever she faced me. "You gluttonous pig, Aren't you afraid of exploding!" I rubbed my neck, looking speechlessly at the satisfied December. In response, December placed her hands on her hips and retorted confidently. "Hmph, you said you'd take care of me forever and let me drink your blood! You can't go back on your word!" "....." Seeing this scene, the girls on the sofa couldn't help but chuckle. Even Natsuki Minamiya's lips curled up slightly, her mood visibly brightening. Suddenly, the living room door was pushed open, and Nagisa walked in, bringing a girl with short red hair and light pink eyes back to the castle. "Heehee, Kyoya, I brought a friend home today!" Saying this, Nagisa led the girl before everyone. "Hello everyone, my name is Yuuma Tokoyogi. Please take care of me!" Following that, the short-haired girl smiled and gave everyone a friendly greeting. ❁❁❁❁ ~ 17 Advanced Chapters Available on Patreon! https://p-atreon.com/dragonnx (Just remove the hyphen to access Patreon normally.)
